The Mysterious Star (ふしぎ星の☆ふたご姫, Fushigi-boshi in Japanese) is a fictional world that serves as the main setting of the first Fushigoboshi no Futagohime series. It is a hollow planet between 1000 and 2000 kilometers in diameter. The exterior is barren, and the inhabitants live inside. The interior is divided into seven countries, each headed by a European-style monarchy. Each of these countries contributes to maintaining the habitable environment of the interior.
The Original concept by "Birthday" includes further ideas and places that were never incorporated into the series.
Although "Wonder Planet" is the official translation, "Mysterious Planet" or "Mysterious Star" have been more commonly used by fans.
The Royal Wonder Academy is a specialized, prestigious institution for princesses and princes from all over the universe. If they complete their schooling and earn their diploma here, they earn the right to become the kings and queens of their planets. It is a boarding school with very strict rules and tough guidelines that all students must follow. Student evaluation is based on a point scale system. If the student's point value reaches 100, he or she is promoted to the next level. If the student's point value reaches -100, he or she is expelled from school. Point records are kept in little notebooks, and first year students start with 10 points.
Seven royal families reign over each of the seven kingdoms, prospering inside the planet for many years. Ohisama no Megumi (the internal star) is beginning to die, and it has been forecast that it will disappear in one year. If it disappears, all of the planet will be covered in darkness. Twin princesses Fine and Rein receive a secret mission from Grace to investigate the reason for the star's decline. Using the power of the Prominence, they hope to rescue the Ohisama no Megumi. An evil chancellor named Roman steals the Prominence for his own purposes. After he unleashes the ultimate enemy, evil begins to spread.
The evil power possesses Prince Bright. Under evil power, he attempts to rule the entire Fushigi-boshi. Fine and Rein, along with others, try to investigate and defeat the powers of evil that possessed Bright.
Fine and Rein, along with other princesses, leave FushigiBoshi to attend the Royal Wonder Academy of Education. This prestigious institution is the school where Princes and Princesses from all of the planets come to receive their certification to become Kings and Queens. Upon arrival at the school, Fine and Rein's unprincess-like actions cause them to violate school regulations and lose points. During the orientation of first year students, the vice-principal presents a legendary bell that will only ring when a certain person touches it. If the bell rings, the person is classified to be the "Universal Princess". No princess had ever rung the bell before. But Fine and Rein rang it, and they transformed.
Strange situations have also been occurring in school. A dark entity comes out and forces everyone to become depressed. When someone resists, the dark entity sends monsters that cause extensive damage. One of the first people to become possessed under this entity was Toma, the new president of the student advisory.
